Anna leaving Classic Physio

Anna Brooke is leaving Classic Physiotherapy as she has been offered a fabulous human physio job in London that was too good to turn down. So she will be concentrating on furthering her Physiotherapy career so she can specialise in the future. Maybe we an entice her back to Oxford and animals in a couple of years.

What is Proprioception

Proprioception is a combination of balance, joint position sense, and body awareness. Part of this is derived from sensory apparatus within the muscles, tendons, ligaments and joints. When any of these areas are damaged, in pain or recovering from injury/surgery, the sensory apparatus are damaged and need proprioceptive stimulation to recover and do their job again. Physiotherapy treatment works to gain proprioception. Good proprioception leads to correct use of limb and body. Athletes benefit from fine tuning proprioception to help prevent injury.
